President Donald Trump has given his former Attorney General Pam Bondi a new gig as a consolation prize.
Bondi, 60, was fired in early April over her handling of the Epstein files and her failure to prosecute her boss’s enemies. She was diagnosed with cancer weeks later, Axios has revealed. Todd Blanche, who was once Trump’s personal lawyer, has taken up the mantle as acting attorney general.
Bondi, whom Trump called a “loyal friend” and “patriot” as he dismissed her, has got a cushy new role. According to Axios, she’s been appointed to the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST), a panel charged with advising the White House on artificial intelligence policy.
